Can anyone tell me a good site to find high-res face portraits? I want the eyes to be looking directly at the camera. The reason I ask is because I'm trying to improve my communication skills, and having a face that is looking directly into mine would be helpful. Weird request, I know. :) Male faces are preferred.

If you put "Face" into google images and then select "Extra Large Images" you should find a stack. Though I would try it with real people because communication is a two-way kinda thing!

Hey, thanks. Yea, communication is two-way, but this still helps, a lot. Every try giving a good presentation without practicing it infront of an imaginary audience? Disasterous!

No, but I've given an imaginary presentation in front of a real audience!

I don't know if this will affect your image search, but I've always heard that it's helpful to imagine your audience naked.

No ... rote, repetitious practice is the key. :)

Since you're not going to be using them for commercial work, then you can just look up "headshot" in Google image search. That should give you plenty to work with.

http://www.3d.sk/ is a 3d texture (& face) stock site. NSFW !!

They have super hires of faces and full body textures. SO beware that you may be looking for just the face, but you'll be seeing a whole lot more nudity as well.

But they do take the straight on photos of faces that are really useful for face model texturing.
